Very simple 5 gallon alcohol recipe?!
Very simple 5 gallon alcohol recipe?
I will list everything I have. Please tell me the simplest recipe and directions for making an alcoholic beverage. I plan on investing some money into equipment and going all-grain soon, but this is all I have for now:
Water
White sugar
Dextrose
Gypsum
Pectic enzyme
Wine yeast
Hard red winter wheat berries (1lb)
Calcium carbonate
Spray dried malt extract (only 1/2 cup)
I'm going for high alcohol content. Not too concerned about taste because I don't have money to spend on anything to make it taste any better for now, but in two weeks I'll get paid and invest in a few carboys, hops, malt and so forth.

some shrooms would go good in there too~
well you have yeast and could go and get some frozen cans of welchs juice and make a wine with that. those cans are cheap. so when you get it off and running with the yeast then keep adding sugar slowly to keep the fermentation going. remember for high alcohol content you need to have a yeast that can tolerate the high alcohol. champagne yeast is good for that purpose.
yeah being a homebrewer myself of many things we like to pride ourselves on the quality not the alcohol content. not into getting drunk anymore just watching others do it!
You don't enough of anything to make a pint of anything, much less five gallons. Don't bother buying any equipment; homebrewing isn't about getting drunk on your own beer. Just buy beer.
